This hotel met our needs (a couple traveling with our teenager) well. The staff were helpful, the room large enough for us and our luggage, the wifi and the a/c in the room worked well, the breakfast was adequate, and the location was perfect, at a tram stop (which you can hear go by if your room faces the street; it didn't bother me) and a block from a metro stop, plus near restaurants and a grocery. A taxi from Linate Airport was 20 euro and from Milano Centrale station was 15 euro (3 passengers and bags). Shortcomings mentioned in other reviews: you drag luggage up a half-flight of stairs to get to the elevator, which is about the size of a typical Italian shower (2' x 2'?). The shower was the size of the elevator, but the bathroom itself was big enough. The door to the bathroom was a foldable partition, which was quite loud when anyone needed the restroom at night. You must pay the city tax in cash. The man at the reception desk during breakfast and sometimes late at night was very nice (he let us check in early) but has limited English; the man manning the desk during typical check-in time speaks English well. We stayed for two nights, then went to Venice for the weekend, then stayed again in the same room (1 double, 1 twin) for 2 nights before leaving Italy. I have rated this hotel as excellent for the value...if I had paid for a higher-level hotel it would not get this rating, but it is excellent for the price and for the budget hotel category that it claims to be.
